My cousin has an entertaining thread open: What are some good and bad ideas for first dance songs at a wedding? You know you have some ideas…go to his blog and leave a comment.
I only posted bad songs on his thread. They are:
- U2′s I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For
- Probably anything by Alanis Morissette would be a bad sign for the groom.
- David Allen Coe’s You Never Even Called Me By My Name
- Bon Jovi’s You Give Love a Bad Name
- Soft Cell’s Tainted Love
- Pearl Jam’s Last Kiss
- Waylon Jenning’s Looking for Love (In All the Wrong Places)
- Nazareth’s Love Hurts
- Dixie Chick’s Goodbye, Earl
- From the Chicago Soundtrack: The Cell Block Tango
- The Righteous Brother’s You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling
- Queen’s Another One Bites the Dust
- I submit that Marilyn Manson should never be played at a wedding.
- I’ve always wanted to get the DJ to play Marvin Gaye’s Let’s Get It On, but haven’t had any success in the past.
- Barry White’s Can’t Get Enough of Your Love, Baby (or any randomly chosen Barry White song, for that matter) would be another one to make the couple leave a little earlier than planned to start the honeymoon.
- Kanye West’s Gold Digger
- Elvis Presley’s Suspicious Minds
- From the O Brother, Where Art Thou Soundtrack: Man of Constant Sorrow
Head over to his blog and submit your suggestions. They just might end up being played at my brother’s wedding

I’ve been to weddings when the DJ played Let’s Get It On. Maybe the ones you talked to were prudes.
Either that or the bridal couple were a prudes and requested the DJ not to play it. Or, someone else went hog wild making a bunch of requests before I could get my request in the queue
